Question Should / Can the Airlines Help with COVID Immunization in the US?

In the US, our public health system is not that good. However, we have a system that many use and it has not been fully used since COVID - that is our air travel system

I wonder...thinking out loud here...can somehow the airline get into the process? They have reliable computers that can handle capacity, scheduling, lists, volume and record/history. They have employees that were either furloughed or not fully utilized, etc.

I am pretty sure they can be adapted faster than any government systems. Since we are giving them money anyway, why not have them actually do some of the work?

Just a crazy thought. Your thoughts?
